Phantom Thief of Heart in Conan

In the afternoon, Kurusu Akatsuki came to the cafe where he worked part-time on time and changed into the uniform of a waiter. People rely on clothes and saddles, and Akatsuki Kurusu, who usually pretends to be earthy, will also change his image at work and simply take care of himself.

Trim your hair and put on a pair of glasses that are a little less frumpy.

In addition to his refreshing dress, Akatsuki Kurusu also changed his behavior in a timely manner. When facing guests, he no longer hid his face in the shadows, but responded with a smile like a spring breeze. Such a simple change restrained his hidden charm.

It is displayed well enough to win the favor of customers who come here to relax.

Compared to Dr. Agasa's various weird inventions, although this part-time job as a waiter is relatively safe, it is also less interesting. However, for Akatsuki Kurusu, observing the customers coming and going after work is also

It's quite a pleasure.

Today, there was such a guest that caught his attention.

This lady looked to be in her twenties. Taking into account the influence of makeup, Kurusu Akira guessed that her actual age was around thirty. She had been in the store for half an hour and was sitting alone in the reserved seat, like

Are you waiting for someone?

Her face was covered with heavy makeup that didn't match her temperament, but it couldn't cover up the red and swollen eyes underneath. I don't know who could bear to let this lily-like beauty shed tears.

After a while, a tall and handsome man walked straight towards the young lady, with a shy smile on his face that did not match his attire.

The two people who met together chatted and joked for a while, and their relationship seemed to be quite good. But somehow, Kurusu Akatsuki always felt that these two people who seemed so inseparable were hiding some ulterior secrets. The lady's smile looked a little gloomy, and the man's smile seemed a bit gloomy.

It's also as unnatural as wearing a mask.

Akatsuki Kurusu is not a detective and has no intention of inquiring into the secrets buried by others, but as a Phantom Thief, he is deeply interested in the complex changes in the emotions of the guests. Now, it is obvious that the conversation between the couple has touched upon personal privacy, so Kurusu

Xiaoya decided to give it up, and after sending the tea and coffee they ordered, he stopped observing.

However, while delivering the refreshments, he overheard the name of the lady whose eyes were swollen from tears - Sayuri.

How about taking one last look? Unable to hold back, Kurusu Akira held her breath and quietly pointed her open third eye at the unnaturally sweet couple. But unexpectedly, Kurusu Akatsuki's eyes came into view.

It was a flaming red light.

The bright red fire that represented out-of-control desire was wrapped around the man with an unnatural expression. Different from the slight red glow on Director Ochiai's body, this man's desire was clearly out of control, which meant that he was also terminally ill.

Akatsuki Kurusu turned his back and sighed secretly. He realized that the Phantom Thief had work to do again.

…………

After Officer Megure sorted out the documents to be used in today's meeting and assigned the unfinished work to his subordinates, he headed to the meeting hall with a chubby belly. His fat body was not caused by laziness, but by laziness.

Overwork and obesity caused by years of busyness and stress.

His wife was deeply worried about her increasingly overworked husband and often asked him to take a break. However, the conscientious Officer Mu Mu always stayed on the front line of his work, even though every time he saw a photo of himself young and heroic, he would

Secretly sad.

The case to be discussed at today's meeting is the "Phantom Thief" incident that he had previously investigated. This budding Phantom Thief sent out three warning letters in just a few weeks, causing an uproar within the police.

Not surprisingly, when the drug-trafficking crimes of Tsugawa Hideharu, the former director of the Rice Blossom Library, are revealed, the influence of Phantom Thief will spread to all walks of life. And the repentance of the famous script writer Ikeda Chikako will surely arouse a lot of media interest.

.

Under such a situation, the Metropolitan Police Department held a special combat meeting on "Phantom Thief".

Officer Megure opened the door and took his seat. The person presiding over the meeting was Toshiro Odagiri, Chief Inspector of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and Chief of the Criminal Division, who was also Officer Megure's old boss before he joined the police department.

Under him was the Chief of Investigation Section 1, Kiyonaga Matsumoto, Officer Megure’s current boss; the remaining one was the Chief of Investigation Section 2, Kitaro Teagami, whom he was relatively unfamiliar with.

Is this incident going to be jointly handled by the Investigation Section 1 and the Investigation Section 2? Officer Megure was secretly speechless. It seemed that the Metropolitan Police Department paid more attention to this strange thief than he thought.

"Hello, I am Megure from the Search Section 1." Officer Megure extended his hand to the officer sitting next to him, secretly envious of the other's figure, which was not out of shape at all.

Judging from my appearance, I am about the same age as him, so why can’t I keep in good shape? Officer Megure looked at his bulging belly and couldn’t help but feel a little jealous.

By the way, there’s also Brother Maori! That guy’s living habits are much worse than mine, but he’s not out of shape at all! It’s really unfair!

"Hello, I am Nakamori from the Second Investigation Section. Please give me your advice." The other party shook hands with Megure enthusiastically. Like Officer Megure, he could roughly guess that this case might require the First and Second Investigation Sections.

Classes are conducted jointly.

And by then, the two of them will probably form a partnership.

"Are you the Nakamori police officer who specializes in hunting down Kaito Kid? I've heard of you!" Officer Megure remembered the other person's relevant resume. The name Kaito Kid was much more prominent within the Metropolitan Police than the fledgling Kaito Meimei.

, even the police officer Nakamori who specializes in hunting down Kidd has become a celebrity.

"Exactly." Officer Nakamori nodded proudly, "Since eighteen years ago, I have been responsible for the case of Kaito Kidd. I didn't expect that after Kaito Kidd resumed his activities this year, there would be a new Kaito thief.

Appear! This world is really not peaceful!"

"That's it! The world is indeed not peaceful now, and my office's work has increased recently!" A careless voice suddenly broke into the conversation between the two police officers. Officer Memu turned around and was surprised.

I discovered a character who shouldn't be here.

"Brother Maori! Why are you here?!"

"Oh, Officer Megure, long time no see!" Mouri Kogoro scratched the back of his head happily. It seemed that it was quite an honor for him to participate in the internal meeting of the Metropolitan Police Department.

"Don't look at me with such a surprised expression. Don't forget that I am the first discoverer of the Phantom Thief, and this Saturday, my daughter witnessed the entire process of the Phantom Thief's crime with her own eyes! I was invited here

It’s natural to attend the meeting!”

"...Oh, I hope you can really provide some useful clues. By the way, you saw some of the officers on the stage. Brother Maori, don't be confused this time!"
